This used genuine Audi negative battery ground cable (OEM 5WA971243A) serves as the main grounding path from the battery negative terminal to the chassis. Also called a battery ground cable or negative cable, it’s critical for stable electrical system operation. Fits 2.0L turbocharged and mild-hybrid engines in Audi A3 and S3 models. A corroded or broken ground cable can cause intermittent starting, dim lights, or erratic electronics.
